Title--What does your state do??
I live in Minnesota I have a 1930 Model A frame that I bought in Missouri with a bill of sale, it never had a title.
How did or does your state verify the serial number on the frame? Make 2 trips,, body off-- to see the number and next trip, body on to inspect the entire car? Have a policeman verify the number with the body off? I cannot get a answer from the Minnesota motor vehicle dept!!! |

Re: Title--What does your state do??
Here in Pennsylvania my vehicle had not title.
I had to get an impression, a picture, a notary. I had to send a registered letter to all who might have had previous ownership of the vehicle. In my case it was only my sister-in-law. I had this response, a title declaration, and my driver's licence and I then had to appear before a judge. The judge issued a decree that the vehicle was free and clear. I took all of these documents to the AAA. There, they knew where and who to send the documents to PennDot. In one week, I had a title with the vin number that came off the frame. It was incredible easy because I was lucky to have county employees willing to help. I HAVE A TITLE!!!! Thanks, |

Re: Title--What does your state do??
this may not be right, but sounds logical:
http://www.dmv.org/mn-minnesota/title-transfers.phpNo Proof of Ownership If there is no available title for a vehicle, and the Division of Driver and Vehicle Services had no record of ownership, submit the following to the DVS to complete a car title transfer:

Re: Title--What does your state do??
Every well meaning soul that gives a reply is nearly useless...unless they live in YOUR state. Those are the nitwits you have to satisfy.
Try your local AAA, they may be able to help you jump through the hoops. Good Luck!! |

Re: Title--What does your state do??
If your state has the provision. It is time to apply for a bonded title. Everything should clearly layed out. Here the local sherriffs office does the inspections for a small fee. Rod

In my opinion, it is similar to going fishing for the first time: A. In an unknown lake, with an unknown rod, unknown reel and unknown bait; and, B. Ttrying to land an unknown fish. Please stay calm, smile often, and do not give up. |

Re: Title--What does your state do??
I took picture of my car and a pencil etching of the motor number, plus the notarized bill of sale to the DOT. After a bunch of red tape and running around I got a title that will be bonded for three years. That was about 10 years ago in MN.

Re: Title--What does your state do??
Are you building a car from parts or do you have a complete car? If you have a complete car you will have to indemnify the state and provide a surety bond, this is what Tom said. I had to do this with a car I bought from Georgia. They will issue a bonded title. If you are building a car from parts, keep all your receipts for the parts and you will have to go to St. Paul where they will inspect you car and paper work. They then will issue a vin number and put a tag on the driver's side door frame. If you are a member of MSRA they can be a resource. You can also look up the regulations on line. Hope this helps.

Re: Title--What does your state do??
Titleing of an antique in Massachusetts was very difficult and confusing, even to the DMV employees.
This past fall I moved to NH and it took me 15 minutes at the local town offices and no title was required. I'll keep my MA title with my other vehicle documents. Funny how 2 states can be so different. |

Re: Title--What does your state do??
It was easy for me in Illinois, Sarah had a Indiana title back from the 70s, transferred without difficulties. Confusion came later when I wanted to put Y of M original plates on her, seems I was the first to do that and reading the DMV law was confusing for them but it did got straightened out.

I have helped a lot of MA friends get titles. MA will honor a NH Notarized bill of sale as proof of ownership since NH does not title. I have bought and sold a lot cars and a few boats that I never brought home....

Re: Title--What does your state do??
This is what you need to pay attention to. All the stories are interesting-ONLY the ones from MN are worth paying attention to. One thing is for sure. DO NOT invest a dime until you have a clear title. Then, you can tell your story to others.
